This Week in Plasma: OCR in Spectacle and many UI improvements

This week Spectacle gained OCR (optical character recognition) functionality, allowing you to turn words in images into selectable text!

(and yes, this is Spectacle recording itself performing OCR)

Right now the functionality is limited to Spectacle, but the code is in the process of being moved to a library so more apps can benefit, too. Thanks a lot to Jhair Paris, who implemented this feature that will appear in Plasma 6.6!

In addition, many UI improvements landed, as well as some high-priority bug fixes and performance improvements. A good week, I’d say! Have a look
